TRANSLATION NOTES: title (luna say maybe): i think the title is wordplay for the word "lunacy," especially the way temari sings it in the first chorus (1:20). it notoriously means "insanity," but i think the correct application of the word here is "foolish act or deed." "lunacy maybe" is a reference to temari's analysis of the mistakes she's made in communication with others as well as her two-faced attitude (esp. on the "maybe" part of the title) also “luna” probably stands for temari as her last name, tsukimura, has the moon kanji (月). “say maybe” again stands for temari’s two-faced nature and inability to communicate properly or in a healthy way. "分かってる、分かってる、解ってる…わかってるよ!" (1:04) - it's the same word (wakatteru) but the third iteration uses a different kanji (解) that has the meaning of "unraveling." temari is geting more exasperated and emotional as she repeats the word, so i chose to translate the line like that. "迷be,rainy" (1:27) - wordplay of the phrase "maybe rainy" but using the kanji "迷," pronounced "mei" here. it has the meaning of "being led astray, lost or perplexed," so it has a double meaning of "maybe rainy" and "lost in the rain" / "my confusion [about my thoughts/situation] is rainy" "君の⼼(ところ)にちゃんと届くまで" (3:06) - the character "⼼" (kokoro/heart) is used but pronounced "tokoro" (place). this carries a double meaning as temari's feelings are being sent to the listener's heart as well as the stage, the place where she is singing this song.
There's just something so charming about this song. I don't know how to exactly put it into words, but while Saki resembled past rivals more than Reds, Luna Say Maybe feels so fresh, yet so nostalgic for a 1st Main Blue solo. Temari's seiyuu voice accompanied by these lyrics... gaah, it's beautiful
this song literally sounds like healing, I dunno how else to explain it Luna Say Maybe came into my life right after i made my internal peace with someone very dear to me, and it really bolstered me in my decision, this song holds so much emotional weight for me
Temari Tsukimura you will always be famous Seriously, though. This song is incredible. I was in shock when I first heard it. The vocals, the emotion and message... It's all amazing I love it sososo much
